Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance was an interesting side step for the Metal Gear series. Back in February, our review expressed hope for a continuation of Raiden's story. It now appears Konami may be looking into such an option.

The publisher has posted a survey (via Polygon) asking fans for their opinions on Raiden's solo adventure. The 20-minute poll extensively asks about the survey-taker's experience and knowledge of Revengeance, including what aspects of the game (mechanics, narrative elements, boss battles, etc.) they did or didn't like. The survey then gauges interest in a possible follow-up, asking what elements players would be interested in seeing, like the game's overall tone, setting, and human-ness of foes.

Those interested in seeing more of Raiden's story may want to weigh in on this survey. With enough interest, Konami and Platinum may give fans the Rerevengeance they're hoping for.

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?
